Our BA in Archaeology and History will develop your knowledge and critical understanding of the political, social, economic, and cultural structures of past societies.  


You’ll gain a wealth of transferable skills and knowledge, and creative, critical and employability skills that employers want, within the sector and beyond.


We’ll introduce you to the archaeology of Britain and the Mediterranean with opportunities to develop proficiency in a range of archaeological skills, including practical and professional skills on a 4-week placement.


History will take you on a journey - from the rise of ancient empires and 20th century Germany to the witch-hunts of Renaissance Europe and Revolutionary Russia. Our range of optional modules means you can shape your degree to your interests and ambitions.


Spanning time, place and perspectives, you'll gain intellectual skills such as the ability to assess different forms of evidence critically, to evaluate different interpretations of the evidence, to construct arguments based on evidence, and to express opinions clearly and powerfully in speech and in writing. You'll also develop skills which remain important in the digital age: creativity, empathy, critical thinking, persuasive communication skills and the ability to challenge and question.
